It's not a flood. They built on an island on purpose.

On porpoise?
Is it some sort of fishing community? Crayfish catchers? Baitworm farm? |

Not very scenic, and not very far from more land, so it can't be for beauty or security reasons.
Rice paddies maybe? Or raising a herd of baby Swamp Things? |

That's not quite true. Communism abandoned Elbonia.

I'm not going to do the math to convert decimal degrees to minutes/seconds, but that sounds about right.
Did you find it on your own or from the coordinates in the wiki link I posted? |

I entered Mexcaltitán de Uribe into Google Earth, but that was way off. Santiago Ixcuintla was much more helpful. I didn't see the coordinates until you pointed out that they were there It's described as "off the coast", but really it's in the salt marsh somewhat inland.
